136 <br /> US 70 Multimodal Corridor Study <br /> project.' For example, when a SUP is included in an adopted plan and the need for the SUP is identified through the <br /> NCDOT Complete Streets evaluation process, NCDOT is expected to pay the full cost of the Shared-Use Path (SUP), <br /> including right-of-way, as part of a larger roadway improvement project (Table 27).This financial arrangement could prove <br /> beneficial to the development of this study's recommended SUP and sidewalk along the majority of the length of the US <br /> 70 corridor by being included with the eventual expected widening of US 70, should the facilities be reflected in an <br /> adopted plan. In instances where a project is not included in a plan or is considered a betterment, cost share requirements <br /> would apply (Table 28).The policy allows exceptions to a project's inclusion, and the policy's newness may lead to updates <br /> and clarifications on implementation and what constitutes an adopted plan, among other issues. <br /> Table 27 NCDOT Complete Streets Policy (2019) Cost Share Scenarios <br /> Complete Streets Cost Share <br /> Facility Type In Plan Not in Plan, but Betterment <br /> Need Identified <br /> Pedestrian Facility NCDOT pays full Cost Share Local <br /> Bicycle Facility NCDOT pays full NCDOT pays full Local <br /> Side Path NCDOT pays full Cost Share Local <br /> Greenway Crossing NCDOT pays full Cost Share Local <br /> Bus Pull Out NCDOT pays full Cost Share Local <br /> Bus Stop (pad only) NCDOT pays full Cost Share Local <br /> Table 28 Complete Streets Betterment Cost Share <br /> Betterment Cost Share <br /> Cost Participation <br /> Municipal Population <br /> NCDOT Local <br /> >100,000 80% 20% <br /> 50,000 to 100,000 85% 15% <br /> 10,000 to 50,000 90% 10% <br /> < 10,000 95% 5% <br /> North Carolina Department of Transportation,Memorandum:Complete Streets Policy Guidance,30 August 2019, <br /> https://connect.ncdot.gov/projects/Roadway/RoadwayDesignAdministrativeDocuments/CS%20PoI icy%20Update%20Memo%2OSecretary%208.28.1 <br /> 9.pdf <br /> 127 Implementation and Funding <br />
